      Hi Al,

      My pops and I are looking to tow two motorcycles cross country. If your car can tow a small trailer and you’d be fine with us towing our bikes, we’ll drive your rig for the cost of gas.

      Thanks,
      Nick

      Hi Brigid.
      My name is Mark Dougherty. I am a driver that is very interested in being the driver for you. I have been posting here on My Family Travels as well as Craigslist. I have been trying for years to drive to Rhode Island. I have always wanted to see Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts. I was born in New York and lived in Pennsylvania. I now live in San Diego County. So this is a chance to check off an item on my bucket list.
      To start off I charge $10 an hour driving time base on Google maps it is a 46 hour drive from Santa Barbra to Rhode Island. My driving cost would be $460 plus expenses. Expenses are meals, motels, fuel, plane tickets, $60 for my wife to take me to the mode of transportation to get me to Santa Barbra and pick me up on my return, and $30 for a checked bag. There is Greyhound Bus from San Diego to Santa Barbra, it is a curbside drop off. The bus ticket cost is $19 based on buying today for the 4th August. It departs San Diego at 5:45 am arriving Santa Barbra at 12:05pm. A return trip from Rhode Island on Delta PVD to SAN departs Aug 9th 5:20 pm arrives San Diego 10:02 pm for $289.70 purchased today.
      I have been estimating prices at $70 for motels and that is no longer real. Motel 6 I stayed at the other night was $109. I will still try to find the cheapest motel but they are looking in the $100+ range.

      Wife’s driving $60
      My driving cost $460
      Bus ticket $19
      I put meals at $40 per day x 7 days=$420
      Motels 6 nights x$100+=$600+
      $30 for checked bag
      Fuel unknown cost as I do not know what your mpg is
      Plane ticket $289

      Total approximate cost
      $1,878

      This is a story written about me and other drivers like myself:

    Hey, I’m a responsible 24 y/o individual looking to transfer a car from NY around mid-late October. I’m pretty flexible as to where and I do not ask for so much extra payment. Ideally, I would like to take some extra time during the transferring to stop in different places along the way.
    Let me know if this matches your necessities!

      Hi Rachel
      My name is Mark Dougherty. I would like to do the trip for you. I charge $10 an hour driving time based on Google maps. Google indicates it is a 40 hour trip so my driving cost is $400 plus expenses. The expenses are:
      Driving $400
      Meals $40 per day x 5 days=$200
      Motels $80+/- per night=$400
      Fuel unknown cost as I do not know what your car mpg is.
      $60 for my wife to take me to the airport and pick me up on my return
      Two plane tickets:
      One from San Diego to Seattle priceline.com $58.40 Delta Airlines July 13th
      One from Atlanta to San Diego priceline.com $248.40 Delta Airlines July 18th
      I put all expenses on my credit card with the exception of the plane tickets. I ask that you put them on your credit card.

    Anyone looking for someone to drive their car from the NOTHEAST/MID ATLANTIC to the PACIFIC NORTHWEST in July, or maybe late June?

    (I’m specifically looking to drive from PHILADELPHIA,PA to PORTLAND, OR, but I’m happy to travel out of my way a bit on either end)

    Hi there – I live in Portland, OR and am going home to the Philadelphia area to visit my family in the next month or so. I was thinking about maybe driving back with some of the books, stuffed animals, etc., from my childhood (my wife’s pregnant with our first). Let me know if that might work for anyone, thanks to you all in advance – Peter

    Hello,
    I’ve gotten my shots……Covid-19 vaccinated.

    DO YOU NEED A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER?

    Are you relocating? Do you need someone to drive your moving truck? Do you need your car delivered to another state? How about your motorhome? Snowbird?
    Tired of driving long distances just to have your car? Wouldn’t it be nice to have your car with you while on vacation or extended winter stay? Feel free to pack your car with personal belongings. (not above the back seat).

    I am your guy for the job, not a loafer, a true gentleman and a safety conscious motivated individual. I am located in Southeast Florida.

    I have recently retired from my job of 30 years. I have been in the automotive business for my entire employment – since 1979 (42 years).

    I currently hold a class “A” CDL driver license. I do not drive tractor trailer combinations.
    Safe driver endorsement, no accidents, no tickets in over 45 years, non-smoker, non-drug user, no criminal record (something I am proud to say).

    I have a 49 point pre-trip, safety inspection checklist for your vehicle and will treat your vehicle as if it were my own. I will take pictures before and after the trip of all 4 sides of any vehicle I drive.

    I am willing to share my entire ride with you on Google maps. That means you can see my location in real time,
    I will not break down each and every dollar, such as hourly rate, gas/fuel, mileage, hotel, meals, tolls, airfare, transportation to you and the airport. That is a pain for you, the customer.
    Keep it simple.
    You give me all the information, start address, ending address, date for pick up and drop off, I will get back to you with one price.

    Assure your insurance covers other drivers, (for the trip.)

    I can accept all forms of payment, credit cards, PayPal, Venmo…..

    I look forward to hearing from you.
    My contact info: [email protected]

    For my protection and yours, once I receive an email from you we can exchange phone numbers and continue to communicate from there.

    Serious inquiries only please!!

    Hi there, I’m looking for someone to drive my car from Buffalo to San Diego as soon as possible. I’m looking for someone who is looking more so for an adventure and not a job. I will however pay for part of your expenses. The car is a 2008 Ford Edge ~ reliable, clean and spacious. The back seats can be taken out and a bed can be added in if you wish.

      Hi Ashley,

      I was looking to drive someone’s car from Philadelphia to Los Angeles and arrive by mid July. I am an experienced driver, clean driving record, and have made this drive before. I’ve also driven to and from FL from NJ many times. I would only ask for a portion of the gas expenses. I would be bringing some small furniture Items in the back. Let me know if this works for you.

      Hi Elaine,

      I can help drive your car to Chicago. I’m planning to visit my friends in Chicago this Summer (can start anytime now). I have been looking for various one-way car rentals so this would be a great option.

      I’m a UCLA graduate (class of 2013), currently employed by Google. I have a clean driving record, can provide a clean background check and references if you’d like. I can safely transfer your car from AZ to Chicago. Coincidentally, my car at home right now is also a Lexus SUV. It’s an 200t. I also have experience driving the hybrid models (so great on gas and easy to drive) from my loaners from the dealership when my car has been serviced.

      As this is convenient and beneficial for both parties, I won’t charge daily or hourly rates. We can negotiate on timing desired and any fuel charges.

      Please feel free to email me [email protected]

      Thank you!
      Teresa

    Hello! I am a student at UCLA and have been driving professionally since I got my license when I was 16. I have references at concierge companies on the east coast for whom I did long-haul trips (DC->Boston, DC->STL, etc.) as well as experience as a valet, so I know how to operate literally every type of car, van, truck, etc.

    I can drive any car from Southern California (LA, SD, SB) to Seattle, WA before June 14. Please let me know if you need a car headed that way! [email protected]
